Types of Perfumes and Fragrance Categories
Perfume has always been a vital part of human culture: people
have perfumed their hair and bodies with oils, resins, flower
and herb extracts and animal scents since earliest history.
Wearing scent is pleasurable; it is an expression of
individuality; it attracts mates and makes us nice to be
close to. Perfumes are more for the wearer: they make us feel
wonderful.
Fragrances are classed?and priced?by their alcohol content,
with the least expensive being eau de toilettes and eau de
colognes containing between 3% and 8% fragrance with the
other 92-97% of the content being made up of alcohol, water
and color. Eau de parfum contains actual perfume oils of 8-15%.
You pay more for perfume because it is stronger at application
and lasts longer than eau de toilette. Perfume (or ?parfum?)
contains somewhere between 15% and 30% of perfume oils and
lasts longer than other scent types?typically around six hours.
Always try to take a sample of perfume home to try for a week
or two and make sure it is the right fragrance and strength
for you before buying.

Fragrance Blending Families
Fragrances may be floral, spicy, woody, herbal, musky, powdery
(also called ?chypre?) or ?aqueous? a recent designation for
aromatherapy scents that are based more on a concept of a
?watery? smell than an actual scent. The recent rediscovery of
herbal and floral scents combined with recent technology for
scent capture has created new markets for subtle extracts?
?headspace? scents extracted through the use of gas
chromatography, creating entirely new classes of perfumes.
Food scents such as vanilla, chocolate, cherry and coffee have
made their way into perfumery to the chagrin of many classical
perfumers and to the happiness of younger customers who like
fruity, foody, unsophisticated scents. Many perfumes combine
the scent categories, creating combinations such as ?Oriental?
which is usually identified by heavy florals and spices.
Aldehydes, which made their debut with the heady scent of
Chanel No. 5, are pure chemicals whose particular odors are
named by letters rather than names. Aldehydes, while completely
man-made are also compelling and immensely popular, making up
many of the elegant perfumes of today.
